5.1 Overview
This chapter provides information of professional services, device maintenance, common
problem diagnostics and other miscellaneous items.
C190MFTCubetape™ is designed to provide years of dependable operation. However,
Parceltools recommends that as with any industrial measurement equipment - the device
is serviced periodically. Timely, factory - specified maintenance and calibration by
a Parceltools - authorized service technician would ensure and document accurate and
dependable performance to specifications.
5.2 Service Alert System
Cubetape firmware includes an alert system to support the process of cleaning
and replacement of tapes.
Cubetape tracks tape usage and will issue two types of service alerts, “clean tape” and
“replace tape cassette” alert.
When the tape is due for cleaning or replacement, Cubetape will issue a service alert at
power on. The operator can proceed to normal data capture by selecting
“next,”
but will
be reminded to clean the tape or change the tape cassette until the alert is dismissed
from Settings/Maintenance.
5.3 Cleaning and Maintenance Process
When the “clean tape” alert
has been issued it is recommended to follow the following process:
•
Inspect the tape markings.
•
If the regular black marks are dirty or obscured, clean gently with a soft cloth and a
mild alcohol-based solvent.
